ROOT & REWILD
PORTUGAL JUNE 5th-12th '27 WITH NANCY & LAURA
VENUE & RETREAT OVER VIEW
Set within a private eco sanctuary in the south west Alentejo region Portugal, this is a space to slow down, reset, and reconnect with what truly matters.
Monte De Orado is off the scale beautiful & has a sacred energy that is so special.
It has 4 stunning practice spaces, endless grounds & a bio pool+ aqueduct
Each day begins and ends with practice;
a mix of Vinyasa, Yin, meditation and breath-work
to gently wake the body and settle the mind.
In between, there is space -
time for swims in the ocean or pool, a float down the aqueduct, quiet moments in the sun, movement, deep rest, and nourishing meals.
Optional treatments, guided walks, and time to explore the surrounding landscape.
Most of all, space to connect with yourself and with a small group of like-minded people.
No pressure. No expectations.
Just the opportunity to step away from the noise and come back to yourself.
Arrive as you are.
Leave feeling clearer, grounded, and restored.
With love,
NANCY & LAURA X

HELLO FROM US
Nancy
Hi, I’m Nancy. I’ve been teaching for nearly 15 years and practising yoga for almost 30. Yoga has become less something I do and more the way I live — it’s what brings balance, clarity, and ease into everything, and that’s exactly what I love sharing with others.
I teach Vinyasa, Yin, Breathwork, Meditation, and Kundalini, and I feel incredibly grateful that what I do never feels like work. I can’t wait to share this incredible retreat experience with you.
Laura and I have known each other for over 13 years, and we’ve both been teaching for a similar length of time. She’s a wonderful teacher and an incredible human being, and I feel so lucky to be hosting our second retreat together.
Here’s a little introduction from Laura…
I am a yoga and movement practitioner of over 20 years, with a deep interest in the intersection of ancient wisdom and modern science. Trained in yoga therapy, I’m fascinated by the biomechanics of the body and the mysteries of the mind — and passionate about sharing yoga as a tool for navigating both.
An inversion enthusiast and advocate of play, I encourage curiosity and exploration, whilst also honouring the value of structure and discipline in building healthy, supportive habits for daily life.
I’m so excited to share this deep and immersive experience with you, and truly couldn’t think of a better person to co-host it with than my dear friend and incredible human, Nancy.
We can’t wait to welcome you ✨
QUESTIONS
CAN I COME ALONE?
Absolutely. Most of our guests join solo, and it’s a great way to connect with like-minded people, form new friendships and also take precious time for yourself.
WHAT MAKES THIS RETREAT SPECIAL?
This is more than just a yoga retreat. Alongside daily practice, you’ll experience breath-work, meditation, sound, and space for reflection creating a deeper, more meaningful reset.
WILL THERE BE FREE TIME?
Yes there’s plenty of space to rest, explore, journal, or simply enjoy the surroundings between sessions.
HOW CAN I GET THE MOST OUT OF IT?
Come with an open mind and give yourself permission to fully switch off. The more present you are, the more you’ll take away from the experience.
WHAT IF I NEED TO CANCEL?
The deposit is non-refundable under any circumstances. If you cancel more than 12 weeks before the retreat, your second payment will be refunded if we fill your space.
IS ALCOHOL, CAFFEINE & MEAT SERVED? Whilst we would like to encourage you to have an alcohol free week to get the most from your experience - clarity, balance, depth - we appreciate this is not for everyone and there will be wine available with dinner at an extra cost.
Caffeine is also available. You are encouraged to tune into what feels best for your body. Vegetarian cuisine is served, there are no meat or fish options available (except on the night out). Dietary needs (vegan, gluten-free, sugar free etc can be accommodated with prior notice.
TRAVEL & TRANSFERS
You will need to arrange your own flights. The nearest airport is Faro (FAO), around 2 hours from the retreat. Lisbon (LIS) is another option, approximately 3 hours away. In July 26 we will recommend a flight / time to arrive so we can arrange a group transfer for as many people as possible.
